Local recommendations that matter

Talk to your neighbors

Browse events, openings, and happenings across Richmond as they're posted by actual people who live here. Gallery shows, neighborhood meetups, whatever's on tonight or this weekend. No ads, no sponsored content, no getting shown stuff from three states over.
Sam and Liza curate guides alongside community contributors who know their neighborhoods inside out. Actual recommendations from locals with skin in the game, not influencers getting paid to post or algorithms pushing sponsored content.
Roundabout helps you find your people in Richmond. Ask questions, share what you know, build relationships with others who care about the city as much as you do. Focused channels for actual conversation.

Curated channels for intentional neighborly conversations

How Roundabout is helping people feel grounded in Richmond

"When I heard about Roundabout, I was really excited about it because I saw it as an opportunity to deepen my connection with people in Richmond and just kind of keep a finger on the pulse of what's going on"

“I would really love to get off Instagram for political reasons and also just how much it, like, sucks you in. So the idea of an app that, like, focused on getting you into more in person, in your community was appealing to me.”

“Vectura cut our month-end close time nearly in half. Our reporting is cleaner, our team is less stressed, and we finally trust our numbers.”
